Light As Air
Deas Vail Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Where to go as the darkness unfolds.
Nobody see its, when you're alone
And all you know is that you want to start again.
We're taking action, do you believe in what you need?
That we will find this story's end.
If you are burdened, I am as light as air.
Broken and blinded, there is a plan, so take my hand.
You'll understand this in the end.
You can't believe in everything you're told.
Sometimes it's nobody that wins,
But you fall down for your heart
And fight it out until the bitter end.
The time is over for silent years of stored up fears
That are holding you down.
A taken lover that you'll begin to find again
It's a hold inside your heart
You're coming around now.
You want to get older,
But don't forget how to stay alive.
You're coming around now.
You want to get older,
But don't forget how to stay alive.
You're coming around now.
You want to get older,
But don't forget how to stay alive.
You're coming around now.
You want to get older,
But don't forget how to stay alive.
"Light As Air" by Deas Vail is a motivational and inspiring song that aims to uplift those who are burdened and lost. The lyrics talk about the struggles of feeling alone and lost in darkness, with no one to turn to or guide you. The first verse speaks of this confusion and feeling of being stuck, not knowing where to go, but wanting to start anew. However, the chorus promises the presence of someone who can help lift these burdens and carry the listener to a better place, giving them hope and a sense of direction.
The second verse encourages the listener to take a stand and fight for what they believe in, even if it means going against the tide. It acknowledges that it's not always easy to do so, but it's necessary to get back up after every fall and keep fighting until the end. The bridge talks about the importance of letting go of stored-up fears that have been holding you back, and unearthing the love that’s been buried in your heart.
"Light As Air" is a song of encouragement, hope, and motivation that promises that things will get better if you hold on to your dreams and faith. It's a reminder that it's necessary to keep fighting and working towards a better tomorrow, even when the situation looks bleak.
